Building control in Selby is handled through the North Yorkshire Building Control Partnership, which covers Selby as part of North Yorkshire Council's area. You can also use a private registered building control approver for work that is not higher-risk. To submit an application, contact the Partnership or reach North Yorkshire Council's building control team at buildingcontrol@northyorks.gov.uk.
There is no legal requirement to hire a structural engineer, but the Planning Portal advises that a structural engineer or surveyor can determine whether a wall is load-bearing, design an appropriate beam, and that it is sensible to speak to one before starting work. Removing a load-bearing wall usually requires building control approval, though building control decides what is needed in each case. Getting calculations done before work starts is strongly advisable.

Selby applications go through the North Yorkshire Building Control Partnership. There are two main routes: a full plans application, where a decision is expected within five weeks (or two months with your consent), or a building notice, which suits smaller projects and allows work to start two days after submission but has no formal plan approval. You can also use a private registered building control approver, who must be registered with the Building Safety Regulator.

You can use the Engineering Council's RegCheck tool to confirm whether an engineer's CEng or IEng registration is currently active. The IStructE and ICE also publish searchable member directories. Bear in mind that the two firms listed for Selby that state chartered status on their websites have not been independently verified; checking directly via RegCheck or the relevant professional body is the most reliable way to confirm current registration.

Under the Party Wall etc. Act 1996, you must give written notice to affected neighbours before carrying out work to a party wall. Notice must be given at least two months before the planned start date. For a new wall on the boundary line or excavation near a neighbour's building, at least one month's notice is required. Failing to serve notice does not make the work illegal, but it can lead to disputes.
